Love this place.

I try and eat here a few times a month. The service is always perfect and attentive. I came for lunch the other day and just realized they offer breakfast. I gave it a try and it was outstanding. My favorite meal is the Raul Tenderloin.

slow service, mediocore food- at best

We stopped here for lunch today, and I was pretty disappointed. The food was ok i guess, but i expected a lot better quality. if you have table clothes and try to have an elegant atmosphere, at least have better food. I might as well stopped at a denny’s. The biggest disappointment was how long the service took. It wasn’t even busy but our food took 35 min, and it took another 20 min to get the check after we asked for it. We could see our server talking to the bartender the whole time. I might have enjoyed it more if I wasn’t worried about getting fired for taking 2 hours for lunch!

new thin crust pizzas!

Finally I’ve found a go to pizza spot. I’ve been constantly searching for restaurants in the area that have at least a decent thin crust pizza and to my surprise my favorite local restaurant now offers them. I decided to give it a shot. The server kindly informed me that they were now offering “Milwaukee Style” thin crust pizzas with all ingredients made fresh in house, including the crusts, and were baked in their brand new pizza oven. WOW! You will not be disappointed. I’m not sure how they did it, but they did. This was probably the best crust I’ve ever tasted. They offer specialty or build your own pizzas. I was informed this was brand new and eventually would be offered on the main menu with more options for different sizes. You can also get these as carryout. If you are like me and view the crust as the most important part of a thin style pizza, then this is it. TRY IT!

Amazing value!

I just signed up for this site and I am slightly confused by some of the negative reviews. I dine at the Open Flame regularly and have always had a great experience. There are no other restaurants in the vicinity that can match the food quality/quantitiy for the price. Where else can you spend around $10-$15 and get a full course meal with bread, soup/salad, and a large portion entree? Drinks are also a great value. They have a chef that is very creative and they offer great value custom dishes throughout the week. Free food is offered during happy hour as well. I noticed some construction recently outside as well and have been informed that a full service outdoor dining patio will be completed by mid June. Anyways, I have no affiliation to the restaurant, but fealt inclined to set the record straight. Some of the negative reviews were given when they first opened. This is not the case anymore. CHECK this place out!

wonderful!

I started going to this restaurant last year and I have never been disapointed! I usually order off the 10.00 meal menu and my husband always gets the burger but wow, what a meal for 10.00, it has everything on it for the money, I usually have the greek chicken with rice pilaf, the best I have ever had outside of my home, I think I could just eat the rice and be happy, chicken is flamebroiled and tender! but to my amazement I went a few weeks ago for breakfast, my mom was in town and we decided to take her there for lunch which was on a sunday, I had the most fab breakfast of Ham and Eggs, it was about 4.65 a plate if I remember correctly but OMG it was great! A big piece of ham with all the fixings!! My hubby had an omlet which was huge also, the place was full but we didn’t have to wait long for a seat or our meal, so neighbors…you will NOT be disapointed to bring your family there for breakfast, lunch or dinner

Best place in Milwaukee

I’ve been coming to Open Flame for a few years now. The best part about it they are always coming up with new specials and food. I never get bored here as there is always something new to try. This weekend I had the salmon special it was cook perfect, all there meals are severed with soup or salad. I had the baked french onion. My wife had the Filet & Scallops, wow it was good, cooked perfect. We also had a appetizer. It was mozzarella cheese with garlic marinara sauce. I really enjoy this place. The staff is always very nice it’s a must try!

Terrible Customer Service

The worst dining experience I’ve ever had and I didn’t even make it to the table….We had an 11 am reservation on Mother’s Day and I was even called the Friday before to CONFIRM the reservation. We had a party of 7 and we all arrived at the restaurant about 10 min. before 11…..I was given a pager and told that they were running behind and that there would be a 15-20 min. wait which was fine…25 min. later I asked for an approximate time that we would be seated and was told that they had no idea…they said some people can sit and talk for an hour or 2. I told them it’s obvious that they overbooked reservations and they said no they didn’t. At 11:45 am we approached them again and still didn’t get any answer or even and idea as to what time we could expect to be seated. They pretty much told us that there was nothing they could do and that if we didn’t like it we didn’t have to wait around.

At no time during our wait did anyone come up to us to apologize for the delay or the inconvenience. It was the most frustrating and unprofessional experience I’ve ever had and will NEVER go back.

Bad service

I visited this place Monday night because of the Monday special which is kids eat free. My husband and I ordered 2 adult menu and expected to get our two kids menu free. The food was ok but we found out we were charged full price because one of the adult menu we ordered (burger) was not “entree”. It might have been our mistake not having the exact information, but at least the waiter could have explained that when we ordered. Very disappointed and angry.
